Concrete Design Ideas: Parametric 3D Printed Lamps by Vertico

Where Concrete Meets Light and Form

At Vertico, we’re constantly exploring how robotic fabrication can expand the role of concrete beyond traditional applications. This parametric 3D printed lamp is part of a growing exploration into concrete product design — where material performance meets sculptural expression.

Crafted from a continuous layer of printed concrete, the lamp’s geometry is inspired by natural forms — evoking pinecones, shells, or fractal patterns. Each ridge interacts with light in unexpected ways, casting intricate shadows and adding spatial depth to any environment.

Designing with Concrete — Not Just Building

This project is more than an experiment in lighting — it’s an example of how digital fabrication transforms design thinking.

• ✅ No molds or casting
• ✅ Fully customizable geometry
• ✅ Printed with precision in a single robotic motion

The result? A lamp that balances structure and softness, raw materiality and refinement — all while showcasing the creative potential of sustainable concrete fabrication.

From Architecture to Interior Design

While Vertico is known for its work in architectural-scale concrete printing, this project highlights how the same technology can unlock value in product design and interior applications.

Whether it’s a sculptural light fixture or a custom spatial element, 3D printed concrete objects offer a new language for sustainable, expressive design.
